One Day Self-Organization Workshop

A one-day, hands-on workshop for Agile teams and Agile managers.

Have you adopted an Agile approach, but the people in your team are still not showing the level of participation and commitment you were hoping for? Decisions-making is still not working right? Leadership is confused? The team’s morale is not taking off? Deadlines are still not met? Then you are not reaping all of the benefits that Agile may bring into your organization.

Attend this workshop to learn, through lectures and practical exercises, why self-organization is so important, what factors prevent it to happen and the countermeasures you can take.

Key objectives are:

Creating team’s cohesion; counteracting division

Positioning yourself at your proper guidance level

Move out from a latent blaming culture by addressing its causes

Dealing with counterproductive collective traits

Removing the major roadblocks to self-organization

Improve the level of communication, participation, cohesion and commitment in your Agile team

Help managers to be facilitators and enablers

Help technical teams to work out solutions and make decisions more effectively

Handle conflicts more easily

Make your organization more productive and proactive

Who Should Attend:

One of the underlying principles of this workshop (also present in the idea of “cross-functional teams”) is that all people in the Agile organization are interconnected and that all of them contribute to the success of the project.

Therefore, this workshop is targeted to anyone involved in an Agile software development project, including: technical team members; team leaders; product owners; product managers and project managers. Greater benefits can be obtained when several people from the same team of company attend this workshop together.

Attendees are expected to have a good understanding of the Agile principles and to have played an active role in a professional Agile software development project.

The CSM training can be held in English or German, that depends on the desires of the particiants.
